Tyler Perry’s Sistas | Season 8 Episode 18 Review: War To Roses
In this Sister Wives review, the focus is on Season 8, Episode 18, titled “War to Roses.” The episode was initially rated a 5/10, but it received a boost to a solid 7/10 thanks to a standout moment between Zach and Danny, which is described as a heartfelt recapturing of their friendship from earlier seasons. Many fans felt the same way, and there’s a hopeful note that Danny might return in future seasons of Zima.
The breakdown starts with the airport situation, where Tony informs Danny about the consequences of her actions, specifically throwing coffee in Leonard’s face. Tony warns her that Leonard is now involved with HR, and there will be repercussions. Danny seems to take the situation lightly, asking Tony to help her out, given that he’s the VP of the airport. She seems to be testing his loyalty—whether he will defend her or prioritize his position as VP. Danny’s actions are considered a mistake, despite Leonard’s prior disrespect. The review discusses how Tony is also in a delicate position, having potentially used his power as VP to manipulate the system and get Danny into a program after the deadline. Now, Tony faces a decision: risk his job to help Danny or remain neutral and let HR take action.
The situation escalates when Danny calls Fatima for advice, which surprises fans since her usual go-to would be Sabrina. The reasoning behind Danny’s choice is explored, considering Fatima’s history of stepping in when Danny was in trouble before. Fatima and Zach drop everything to support Danny, even though they have their own issues to deal with, like the Hayden and Tamir situation. However, the review notes that Fatima, who has been critical of Zach’s approach, seems to be making decisions based on her own terms. While Zach wants to confront Hayden and Tamir to gather evidence, Fatima insists they go check on Danny first.
The tension continues as Fatima and Zach disagree on their approach to the Hayden and Tamir situation. Fatima, armed with her gun, decides to visit Hayden and Tamir’s place, while Zach focuses on Danny. There’s a discussion about how Fatima’s impulsive actions might put her in a vulnerable position, especially with her pregnancy.
The review highlights a heartwarming moment when Zach arrives at the airport to check on Danny. It’s described as a brother-sister dynamic, and their conversation about her current predicament is a reminder of how things might have played out differently if Zach had been around during the Leonard saga. Unfortunately, Danny’s situation worsens when Tony informs her that she’s been suspended without pay.
The review then shifts to the bank, where Paige and Sabrina have a conversation. Paige opens up about trying to improve her relationship with Sabrina and acknowledges that she was wrong for her past behavior. Sabrina, while acknowledging Paige’s attempt at growth, also confronts her about the hurtful things Paige said about her in the past. There’s an emotional moment where Sabrina shares how she fought to get her job back after being unjustly terminated, while Paige’s actions have caused further tension between the two. The review notes that the scene feels particularly significant during Black History Month, given the broader context of race and professional challenges.
The review ends by discussing a brief but telling moment where Sabrina talks to Rich about their relationship. Sabrina’s decision to drive herself instead of having Rich pick her up signals that there may be trouble ahead for their romance, hinting at a potential breakup in the future.
This review provides a detailed and critical breakdown of the episode, highlighting the emotional dynamics between the characters, the tensions at the airport, the complexities of the Hayden and Tamir situation, and the slow-building reconciliation between Paige and Sabrina.
